'''Godbomber''' is a product of the super-science of the planet &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Master_%28Headmasters%29" title="Master (Headmasters)"&gt;Master&lt;/a&gt;, created by the &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Autobot" title="Autobot"&gt;Autobots&lt;/a&gt; to serve as a personal power-up for their leader, &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ginrai" title="Ginrai"&gt;Ginrai&lt;/a&gt;. Godbomber is merely a drone with no &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Spark" title="Spark"&gt;spark&lt;/a&gt; of his own, animated by &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ch%C5%8Dkon_Power" title="Chōkon Power"&gt;Chōkon Power&lt;/a&gt;
drawn from Ginrai himself and responding to the Autobot commander's
emotions and needs. Godbomber is also equipped with cargo space to
carry the &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transtector" title="Transtector"&gt;Transtectors&lt;/a&gt; of the three Autobot &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Headmaster_Junior" title="Headmaster Junior"&gt;Headmaster Juniors&lt;/a&gt;, who can drive the drone from his three-man cockpit and animate him by uniting their own Chōkon Power.


'''Godbomber''' is [[Ginrai]]'s personal power-up mushroom cum errands boy.
Godbomber is comprised of multiple component parts, which
disassemble and reconfigure into his assorted modes. His components
include the “God Wing”, the “God Punch”, the “God Legs”, and the “God
Breast”, which connect to Ginrai to transform him into '''God Ginrai'''. Godbomber and God Ginrai both wield the mighty God Cannon.

When the Decepticon super-weapon, &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Scorponok_%28G1%29" title="Scorponok (G1)"&gt;BlackZarak&lt;/a&gt; began making his way towards &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Earth" title="Earth"&gt;Earth&lt;/a&gt;, the space-based Autobot army dispatched &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Grand_Maximus" title="Grand Maximus"&gt;Grand Maximus&lt;/a&gt; to inform the Autobots under &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Metalhawk" title="Metalhawk"&gt;Metalhawk&lt;/a&gt;'s
command of the situation. Grand Maximus gave the Autobots on Earth the
plans and materials necessary for the construction of Godbomber, which
would endow Ginrai with the ability to fly and fight in space, thereby
allowing him to stop BlackZarak before he reached Earth. When the
Autobots saved the life of &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Leftfoot" title="Leftfoot"&gt;Leftfoot&lt;/a&gt;, head of the &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/British_Motors" title="British Motors"&gt;British Motors&lt;/a&gt; automotive company and father of the Autobot &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Godmaster" title="Godmaster"&gt;Godmaster&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Lightfoot" title="Lightfoot"&gt;Lightfoot&lt;/a&gt;, not long thereafter, he showed his gratitude by offering them the use of the British Motors factories in &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Canada" title="Canada"&gt;Canada&lt;/a&gt; to carry out the construction project, which was dubbed the “Bomber Project.”  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Life%3F_Death%3F_Lightfoot_Must_Choose" title="Life? Death? Lightfoot Must Choose"&gt;Life? Death? Lightfoot Must Choose&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;


[[Image:Godbomber1.jpg|thumb|left|200px|NOT [[Roller]]]]


Arriving on Earth to inform the Autobots there of the impending arrival of the Decepticon super-weapon, Black Zarak, Grand Maximus provided them with the schematics necessary to create the non-sentient drone, Godbomber. Able to connect to vehicle mode (Super) Ginrai as a tandem trailer, Godbomber could also transport the Transtectors of the three Headmaster Juniors - Cab, Shūta and Minerva - and most importantly, would be able to combine with Super Ginrai, powering him up into the new form of God Ginrai, giving him the strength necessary to battle Black Zarak. As the so-called "Bomber Project" proceeded apace under Metalhawk's command, Super Ginrai was dealt a severe defeat by the Decepticon, Overlord. Following a failed attack on the Bomber Project facility, the barely-healed Ginrai insisted upon taking the fight to the Decepticons, combining with the completed Godbomber and confronting Overlord and Black Zarak on the moon. With the aid of Grand Maximus, God Ginrai was able to force Black Zarak to retreat back into space.
[[Image:|right|250px|thumb|Godbomber vehicle.jpg]]
The Bomber Project was at first concealed from the Headmaster Juniors, but this decision didn't last long, and &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Sh%C5%ABta_G%C5%8D" title="Shūta Gō"&gt;Shūta&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Cab" title="Cab"&gt;Cab&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Minerva" title="Minerva"&gt;Minerva&lt;/a&gt; were soon brought to the British Motors facility. When Ginrai was badly injured in battle with &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Overlord_%28Masterforce%29" title="Overlord (Masterforce)"&gt;Overlord&lt;/a&gt; soon after,  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Super_Ginrai_Gets_Blown_Away_in_the_Desert%21%3F" title="Super Ginrai Gets Blown Away in the Desert!?"&gt;Super Ginrai Gets Blown Away in the Desert!?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
the Decepticons discovered the existence of the Bomber Project and
attacked the facility just as the project was entering its final phase.
Thanks to some trickery from the Autobot Godmasters, the Decepticons
were lured away from the factory and defeated &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Will_the_Bomber_Project_Be_Destroyed%21%3F" title="Will the Bomber Project Be Destroyed!?"&gt;Will the Bomber Project Be Destroyed!?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
and Godbomber was at last completed. Despite his injuries, Ginrai
wasted no time in merging with Godbomber into God Ginrai, and headed
for the &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Moon_%28moon%29" title="Moon (moon)"&gt;moon&lt;/a&gt; to battle Overlord and BlackZarak.  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/God_Ginrai_-_Into_the_Sky%21%21" title="God Ginrai - Into the Sky!!"&gt;God Ginrai - Into the Sky!!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
Although the battle went badly at first, the arrival of Grand Maximus
tipped the scales in the Autobots favour, and the two Decepticons were
bested. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/God_Ginrai_-_Showdown_on_the_Surface_of_the_Moon" title="God Ginrai - Showdown on the Surface of the Moon"&gt;God Ginrai - Showdown on the Surface of the Moon&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;


During a desert battle with Overlord, Godbomber revealed an unexpected ability by reconfiguring his components into a robot mode in response to Ginrai's threat. Later, the Headmaster Juniors discovered that they could control Godbomber in both of his modes by uniting their own Chokon Power, together matching the level used by Ginrai to control him.


With Black Zarak's return to Earth and subsequent merging with Devil Z, God Ginrai was forced into a final battle with the hybrid entity. He succeeded in decapitating the villain, but Black Zarak then assumed a new hydra alternate mode, which God Ginrai destroyed with his God Fire Guts attack. With the added power of the Headmaster Juniors from within his Godbomber components, God Ginrai then executed the almighty Final Fire Guts attack, destroying Devil Z. With the energy-being's destruction, Ginrai and the other humans were separated from their Transtectors, who continued to exist as true robot life forms, having evolved real personalities through their partnership with humans. The newly-born Transformers then departed Earth to pursue the surviving Decepticons back into space.

Smarting after their defeat on the moon, &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Giga" title="Giga"&gt;Giga&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Mega" title="Mega"&gt;Mega&lt;/a&gt;
resolved to cripple Ginrai by destroying Godbomber, and lured the pair
to a Middle-Eastern desert to do the deed. During the battle, Godbomber
revealed the unexpected ability to transform into a robot mode, joining
his firepower with Ginrai's to push Giga back. Mega soon arrived and
the pair combined into Overlord, who created a whirling tornado of
Chōkon-charged sand that swept Ginrai and Godbomber up, but the two
Autobots quickly combined back into God Ginrai and defeated the
villains. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Overlord_-_Terror_of_the_Ch%C5%8Dkon_Tornado" title="Overlord - Terror of the Chōkon Tornado"&gt;Overlord - Terror of the Chōkon Tornado&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

distress call from Lightfoot, who had become trapped in a crevasse
beneath the ocean by the &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Seacon_%28Masterforce%29" title="Seacon (Masterforce)"&gt;Seacons&lt;/a&gt;,
Ginrai dived into the ocean while Godbomber stood watch. When he did
not reappear, the Juniors attempted to go after him, but Godbomber
restrained them and went beneath the waves in their place. After
holding off &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/King_Poseidon" title="King Poseidon"&gt;King Poseidon&lt;/a&gt;,
Godbomber located Ginrai and Lightfoot buried beneath an avalanche and
dug them out, then combined with Ginrai to soundly defeat King
Poseidon. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Escape%21%21_The_Underwater_Volcano_Erupts" title="Escape!!

In the heartland of America, the Decepticons took another stab at
rubbing out Godbomber, this time by separating him from Ginrai, and
attacking the commander, leaving Ginrai's Chōkon Power too depleted to
control Godbomber. While Overlord occupied Ginrai, &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Hydra_%28Masterforce%29" title="Hydra (Masterforce)"&gt;Hydra&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Buster_%28Masterforce%29" title="Buster (Masterforce)"&gt;Buster&lt;/a&gt;
targeted Godbomber, but the Autobot Headmaster Juniors boarded the
drone and tried to drive it to safety. Hydra and Buster pursued and
caused Godbomber to crash into a tree; simultaneously, Ginrai's Chōkon
Power was reduced so badly as to leave Godbomber entirely immobile. As
Buster closed in to finish the job, however, the three Juniors
discovered that if they placed their hands on a panel on the drone's
control console, they could infuse it with their own Chōkon Power.
Reactivated by the Juniors, Godbomber transformed to robot mode and
defeated Buster, and then returned to Ginrai's side and combined with
him to best Overlord. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Destroy_Godbomber%21%21" title="Destroy Godbomber!!"&gt;Destroy Godbomber!!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

Godbomber later helped Ginrai and the Autobot Godmasters battle Hydra and Buster  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Secret_Orders%21_Destroy_the_Autobot_Base%21%21" title="Secret Orders! Destroy the Autobot Base!!"&gt;Secret Orders! Destroy the Autobot Base!!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  and rescued the Juniors and Metalhawk from the Autobot base before a Decepticon attack destroyed it.  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Disaster%21_The_Autobot_Base_Explodes" title="Disaster! The Autobot Base Explodes"&gt;Disaster! The Autobot Base Explodes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
Godbomber subsequently spent almost all of the time combined with
Ginrai, although when the Autobot commander ventured into the
Decepticon base to rescue the captive Shūta, he separated from the
drone so that they could split up to better search the complex.
Godbomber happened upon Shūta in the clutches of King Poseidon, but was
ordered by Ginrai to stand down for fear of Shūta's safety. When the
Decepticon Headmaster Junior &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Cancer" title="Cancer"&gt;Cancer&lt;/a&gt;
turned on his teammates and rescued Shūta, however, Godbomber sprang
into action, finishing off the Seacon combiner and helping everyone get
to safety before returning to Ginrai's side and recombining with him to
defeat Overlord once more. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/God_Ginrai:_Showdown_at_the_Decepticon_Base" title="God Ginrai: Showdown at the Decepticon Base"&gt;God Ginrai: Showdown at the Decepticon Base&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
 
In the midst of a battle in the &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Grand_Canyon&amp;action=edit" class="new" title="Grand Canyon"&gt;Grand Canyon&lt;/a&gt;, Godbomber battled a swarm of Seacons and &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Sparkdash" title="Sparkdash"&gt;Sparkdash&lt;/a&gt;
drones alongside the Headmaster Juniors. When he sensed that Ginrai was
in danger, the Juniors instructed him to go to the commander's aid, and
Godbomber complied, racing to Ginrai's aid and combining with him to
battle the powered-up &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Darkwings" title="Darkwings"&gt;Darkwings&lt;/a&gt; brothers.  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Battle_to_the_Death%21%21_God_Ginrai_VS_Darkwings_Reborn" title="Battle to the Death!! God Ginrai VS Darkwings Reborn"&gt;Battle to the Death!! God Ginrai VS Darkwings Reborn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;  Godbomber was never seen to separate from Ginrai again, and was still connected to him when he defeated the Decepticon ruler &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Devil_Z" title="Devil Z"&gt;Devil Z&lt;/a&gt;.
With Devil Z's death, the humans were separated from their
Transtectors, and the Transtectors themselves were brought to life as
true robotic beings. It is unclear if Godbomber was also brought to
life, but whatever the case, all the Transtectors departed Earth to
rejoin their respective factions in space. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/A_Battle..._and_Then..." title="A Battle... and Then..."&gt;A Battle... and Then...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
 
 
&lt;a name="Victory_cartoon"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h4&gt;&lt;span class="editsection"&gt;[&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Godbomber&amp;action=edit&amp;section=4" title="Edit section: Victory cartoon"&gt;edit&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="mw-headline"&gt;''Victory'' cartoon&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
Whether he was still a drone, truly alive or whatever, Godbomber
remained consistently combined with Ginrai for the duration of the war
against &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Deathsaurus" title="Deathsaurus"&gt;Deathsaurus&lt;/a&gt;'s Decepticons in 2025. When Ginrai was fatally wounded by the &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Emperor_of_Destruction" title="Emperor of Destruction"&gt;Emperor of Destruction&lt;/a&gt; and rebuilt into &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Victory_Leo" title="Victory Leo"&gt;Victory Leo&lt;/a&gt;, so too was Godbomber.  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ginrai_Dies%21%21" title="Ginrai Dies!!"&gt;Ginrai Dies!!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
 
 
&lt;a name="Super-God_Masterforce_comic"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span class="editsection"&gt;[&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Godbomber&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: Super-God Masterforce comic"&gt;edit&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="mw-headline"&gt;''Super-God Masterforce'' comic&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
[[Image:|right|230px|thumb|Godbomber manga.jpg]]
Following Ginrai's appointment as &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Supreme_Commander" title="Supreme Commander"&gt;Supreme Commander&lt;/a&gt; of the Autobots, the Earth- and space-based Autobot forces combined their efforts to construct Godbomber.  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/The_Battle_Begins%21_The_United_Earth-Space_Troops" title="The Battle Begins! The United Earth-Space Troops"&gt;The Battle Begins! The United Earth-Space Troops&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
This “Bomber Project” was quickly completed, and Godbomber was piloted
into battle by the Headmaster Juniors alongside Ginrai, combining with
him to defeat Overlord and BlackZarak. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/God_Ginrai%27s_Amazing_Super-God_Combination%21" title="God Ginrai's Amazing Super-God Combination!"&gt;God Ginrai's Amazing Super-God Combination!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
 
When Shūta and Cab were captured by the Decepticons, Minerva was
left to pilot Godbomber alone, and crashed the drone through the walls
of Overlord's base mode in order to rescue her friends. When Overlord
responded by transforming, Godbomber did the same, and combined with
Ginrai to join Grand Maximus in defeating the Decepticons. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/The_Earth_Family_of_Good_and_Evil" title="The Earth Family of Good and Evil"&gt;The Earth Family of Good and Evil&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
 
Godbomber and Ginrai were combined when they pursued Darkwings to the peak of &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Mount_Everest&amp;action=edit" class="new" title="Mount Everest"&gt;Mount Everest&lt;/a&gt;, where the Decepticons were menacing the world with their new &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=AO_Laser&amp;action=edit" class="new" title="AO Laser"&gt;AO Laser&lt;/a&gt;,
but separated upon arrival to battle the villains. Godbomber was made a
target for the AO Laser, but Ginrai leaped into the path of the beam to
protect the Headmaster Juniors and was blinded by the blast. Luckily,
an insulting remark from Cancer caused the new Decepticon Godmaster &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Clouder" title="Clouder"&gt;Clouder&lt;/a&gt; to turn against his teammates, and Godbomber recombined with Ginrai to knock Overlord out of the fight with a God Punch.  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Decepticons%27_Great_Counterattack%21" title="Decepticons' Great Counterattack!"&gt;Decepticons' Great Counterattack!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
 
After a further battle with Overlord in which Ginrai and Godbomber used the new Autobot weapon, the &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=VX_Bomb&amp;action=edit" class="new" title="VX Bomb"&gt;VX Bomb&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Live%3F_Die%3F%21_The_Desperate_Super-God_Combination" title="Live?

Autobots"&gt;Great Turn-Around! Autobots&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
Godbomber combined with Ginrai for his final battle with the
Decepticons. During this clash, the Decepticon ruler Devil Z turned on
his subordinates and attempted to drain their Jinchōkon in order to
transform himself into the ultimate lifeform. Saved by the Autobot &lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Pretender" title="Pretender"&gt;Pretenders&lt;/a&gt;,
the Decepticons joined with Ginrai, Godbomber and the other Autobots in
combining their energy into the “Perfect Transform Attack”, which
destroyed Devil Z for good. With the alien being's death, the
Transformers' Transtectors came to life as true super-robot lifeforms,
including (somehow) Godbomber. Bidding farewell to the Headmaster
Juniors, Godbomber joined with the other Transformers in departing
Earth to rejoin their respective factions in space. &lt;span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"&gt;&lt;a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/The_Birth_of_the_Super_Lifeforms" title="The Birth of the Super Lifeforms"&gt;The Birth of the Super Lifeforms&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

:Godbomber transforms into an armored trailer, comprised of a
collection of modular pieces. He does not so much transform as he does
break apart—into two arms, two legs, two wings, a chest and a back—and
recombine in a different configuration, with the only elements of
transformation being his flip-out feet and head. He is armed in both
modes with the God Cannon, which can either mount on his shoulder or be
held in his fist in robot mode. Godbomber combines with the
separately-sold Ginrai to form God Ginrai.
 
:He's the sort of toy that makes you wonder how the heck they got away with selling him separately.

:Godbomber was also available in a giftset with Ginrai, and is
able to interact with the Autobot commander in several ways. In trailer
mode, Godbomber can hook up either directly to Ginrai's cab or to the
back of Ginrai's own trailer and be towed along behind him, while any
of Ginrai's weapons can plug into the holes in Godbomber's wings and
chassis. Most prominently, of course, Godbomber disassembles into his
various component parts, which combine with Super Ginrai to form God
Ginrai. The God Legs become boots to which Ginrai's Particle Beam
Cannons attach; the God Wing attaches to Ginrai's back, the two God
Punch arms clip over Ginrai's own; and the God Breast clips over
Ginrai's chest, into the top of which the God Cannon plugs. The toy
also features a secondary, lesser combination referred to as the "God
Breaster," which involves attaching the God Breast to Super Ginrai, and
plugging Godbomber's wings into his arms.
 
:The God Ginrai gift set was reissued in Japan in 2002, though
it was notoriously over-produced, and online retailers were still
selling it even years later, at greatly reduced prices.

Godbomber is an <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Autobot" title="Autobot">Autobot</a> <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Drone" class="mw-redirect" title="Drone">drone</a> from the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Super-God_Masterforce_%28franchise%29" title="Super-God Masterforce (franchise)">Super-God Masterforce</a> portion of the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Generation_1_%28franchise%29" title="Generation 1 (franchise)">Generation 1</a> <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Continuity_family" title="Continuity family">continuity family</a>.

[[Image:|right|300px|thumb|You're going to HELL, you SINNER!!!]] Godbomber is a product of the super-science of the planet <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Master_%28Headmasters%29" title="Master (Headmasters)">Master</a>, created by the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Autobot" title="Autobot">Autobots</a> to serve as a personal power-up for their leader, <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ginrai" title="Ginrai">Ginrai</a>. Godbomber is merely a drone with no <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Spark" title="Spark">spark</a> of his own, animated by <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ch%C5%8Dkon_Power" title="Chōkon Power">Chōkon Power</a> drawn from Ginrai himself and responding to the Autobot commander's emotions and needs. Godbomber is also equipped with cargo space to carry the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transtector" title="Transtector">Transtectors</a> of the three Autobot <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Headmaster_Junior" title="Headmaster Junior">Headmaster Juniors</a>, who can drive the drone from his three-man cockpit and animate him by uniting their own Chōkon Power.

Godbomber is comprised of multiple component parts, which disassemble and reconfigure into his assorted modes. His components include the “God Wing”, the “God Punch”, the “God Legs”, and the “God Breast”, which connect to Ginrai to transform him into God Ginrai. Godbomber and God Ginrai both wield the mighty God Cannon.

Grand Maximus gave the Autobots on Earth the plans and materials necessary for the construction of Godbomber, which would endow Ginrai with the ability to fly and fight in space, thereby allowing him to stop BlackZarak before he reached Earth. When the Autobots saved the life of <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Leftfoot" title="Leftfoot">Leftfoot</a>, head of the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/British_Motors" title="British Motors">British Motors</a> automotive company and father of the Autobot <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Godmaster" title="Godmaster">Godmaster</a> <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Lightfoot" title="Lightfoot">Lightfoot</a>, not long thereafter, he showed his gratitude by offering them the use of the British Motors factories in <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Canada" title="Canada">Canada</a> to carry out the construction project, which was dubbed the “Bomber Project.” <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Life%3F_Death%3F_Lightfoot_Must_Choose" title="Life? Death? Lightfoot Must Choose">Life? Death? Lightfoot Must Choose</a></span>


[[Image:|right|250px|thumb|Godbomber vehicle.jpg]] The Bomber Project was at first concealed from the Headmaster Juniors, but this decision didn't last long, and <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Sh%C5%ABta_G%C5%8D" title="Shūta Gō">Shūta</a>, <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Cab" title="Cab">Cab</a> and <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Minerva" title="Minerva">Minerva</a> were soon brought to the British Motors facility. When Ginrai was badly injured in battle with <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Overlord_%28Masterforce%29" title="Overlord (Masterforce)">Overlord</a> soon after, <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Super_Ginrai_Gets_Blown_Away_in_the_Desert%21%3F" title="Super Ginrai Gets Blown Away in the Desert!?">Super Ginrai Gets Blown Away in the Desert!?</a></span> the Decepticons discovered the existence of the Bomber Project and attacked the facility just as the project was entering its final phase. Thanks to some trickery from the Autobot Godmasters, the Decepticons were lured away from the factory and defeated <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Will_the_Bomber_Project_Be_Destroyed%21%3F" title="Will the Bomber Project Be Destroyed!?">Will the Bomber Project Be Destroyed!?</a></span> and Godbomber was at last completed. Despite his injuries, Ginrai wasted no time in merging with Godbomber into God Ginrai, and headed for the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Moon_%28moon%29" title="Moon (moon)">moon</a> to battle Overlord and BlackZarak. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/God_Ginrai_-_Into_the_Sky%21%21" title="God Ginrai - Into the Sky!!">God Ginrai - Into the Sky!!</a></span> Although the battle went badly at first, the arrival of Grand Maximus tipped the scales in the Autobots favour, and the two Decepticons were bested. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/God_Ginrai_-_Showdown_on_the_Surface_of_the_Moon" title="God Ginrai - Showdown on the Surface of the Moon">God Ginrai - Showdown on the Surface of the Moon</a></span>


[[Image:|left|180px|thumb|Godbomber robot.jpg]] Smarting after their defeat on the moon, <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Giga" title="Giga">Giga</a> and <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Mega" title="Mega">Mega</a> resolved to cripple Ginrai by destroying Godbomber, and lured the pair to a Middle-Eastern desert to do the deed. During the battle, Godbomber revealed the unexpected ability to transform into a robot mode, joining his firepower with Ginrai's to push Giga back. Mega soon arrived and the pair combined into Overlord, who created a whirling tornado of Chōkon-charged sand that swept Ginrai and Godbomber up, but the two Autobots quickly combined back into God Ginrai and defeated the villains. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Overlord_-_Terror_of_the_Ch%C5%8Dkon_Tornado" title="Overlord - Terror of the Chōkon Tornado">Overlord - Terror of the Chōkon Tornado</a></span>

When Ginrai, Godbomber and the Headmaster Juniors responded to a distress call from Lightfoot, who had become trapped in a crevasse beneath the ocean by the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Seacon_%28Masterforce%29" title="Seacon (Masterforce)">Seacons</a>, Ginrai dived into the ocean while Godbomber stood watch. When he did not reappear, the Juniors attempted to go after him, but Godbomber restrained them and went beneath the waves in their place. After holding off <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/King_Poseidon" title="King Poseidon">King Poseidon</a>, Godbomber located Ginrai and Lightfoot buried beneath an avalanche and dug them out, then combined with Ginrai to soundly defeat King Poseidon. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Escape%21%21_The_Underwater_Volcano_Erupts" title="Escape!! The Underwater Volcano Erupts">Escape!! The Underwater Volcano Erupts</a></span>


[[Image:|right|180px|thumb|Supergodcombination.jpg]] In the heartland of America, the Decepticons took another stab at rubbing out Godbomber, this time by separating him from Ginrai, and attacking the commander, leaving Ginrai's Chōkon Power too depleted to control Godbomber. While Overlord occupied Ginrai, <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Hydra_%28Masterforce%29" title="Hydra (Masterforce)">Hydra</a> and <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Buster_%28Masterforce%29" title="Buster (Masterforce)">Buster</a> targeted Godbomber, but the Autobot Headmaster Juniors boarded the drone and tried to drive it to safety. Hydra and Buster pursued and caused Godbomber to crash into a tree; simultaneously, Ginrai's Chōkon Power was reduced so badly as to leave Godbomber entirely immobile. As Buster closed in to finish the job, however, the three Juniors discovered that if they placed their hands on a panel on the drone's control console, they could infuse it with their own Chōkon Power. Reactivated by the Juniors, Godbomber transformed to robot mode and defeated Buster, and then returned to Ginrai's side and combined with him to best Overlord. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Destroy_Godbomber%21%21" title="Destroy Godbomber!!">Destroy Godbomber!!</a></span>


[[Image:|left|220px|thumb|Godbomber and ginrai.jpg]] Godbomber later helped Ginrai and the Autobot Godmasters battle Hydra and Buster <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Secret_Orders%21_Destroy_the_Autobot_Base%21%21" title="Secret Orders! Destroy the Autobot Base!!">Secret Orders! Destroy the Autobot Base!!</a></span> and rescued the Juniors and Metalhawk from the Autobot base before a Decepticon attack destroyed it. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Disaster%21_The_Autobot_Base_Explodes" title="Disaster! The Autobot Base Explodes">Disaster! The Autobot Base Explodes</a></span> Godbomber subsequently spent almost all of the time combined with Ginrai, although when the Autobot commander ventured into the Decepticon base to rescue the captive Shūta, he separated from the drone so that they could split up to better search the complex. Godbomber happened upon Shūta in the clutches of King Poseidon, but was ordered by Ginrai to stand down for fear of Shūta's safety. When the Decepticon Headmaster Junior <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Cancer" title="Cancer">Cancer</a> turned on his teammates and rescued Shūta, however, Godbomber sprang into action, finishing off the Seacon combiner and helping everyone get to safety before returning to Ginrai's side and recombining with him to defeat Overlord once more. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/God_Ginrai:_Showdown_at_the_Decepticon_Base" title="God Ginrai: Showdown at the Decepticon Base">God Ginrai: Showdown at the Decepticon Base</a></span>

In the midst of a battle in the <a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Grand_Canyon&action=edit" class="new" title="Grand Canyon">Grand Canyon</a>, Godbomber battled a swarm of Seacons and <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Sparkdash" title="Sparkdash">Sparkdash</a> drones alongside the Headmaster Juniors. When he sensed that Ginrai was in danger, the Juniors instructed him to go to the commander's aid, and Godbomber complied, racing to Ginrai's aid and combining with him to battle the powered-up <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Darkwings" title="Darkwings">Darkwings</a> brothers. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Battle_to_the_Death%21%21_God_Ginrai_VS_Darkwings_Reborn" title="Battle to the Death!!

With Devil Z's death, the humans were separated from their Transtectors, and the Transtectors themselves were brought to life as true robotic beings. It is unclear if Godbomber was also brought to life, but whatever the case, all the Transtectors departed Earth to rejoin their respective factions in space. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/A_Battle..._and_Then..." title="A Battle... and Then...">A Battle... and Then...</a></span>

When Shūta and Cab were captured by the Decepticons, Minerva was left to pilot Godbomber alone, and crashed the drone through the walls of Overlord's base mode in order to rescue her friends. When Overlord responded by transforming, Godbomber did the same, and combined with Ginrai to join Grand Maximus in defeating the Decepticons. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/The_Earth_Family_of_Good_and_Evil" title="The Earth Family of Good and Evil">The Earth Family of Good and Evil</a></span>

Godbomber and Ginrai were combined when they pursued Darkwings to the peak of <a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Mount_Everest&action=edit" class="new" title="Mount Everest">Mount Everest</a>, where the Decepticons were menacing the world with their new <a href="http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=AO_Laser&action=edit" class="new" title="AO Laser">AO Laser</a>, but separated upon arrival to battle the villains. Godbomber was made a target for the AO Laser, but Ginrai leaped into the path of the beam to protect the Headmaster Juniors and was blinded by the blast. Luckily, an insulting remark from Cancer caused the new Decepticon Godmaster <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Clouder" title="Clouder">Clouder</a> to turn against his teammates, and Godbomber recombined with Ginrai to knock Overlord out of the fight with a God Punch. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Decepticons%27_Great_Counterattack%21" title="Decepticons' Great Counterattack!">Decepticons' Great Counterattack!</a></span>

During this clash, the Decepticon ruler Devil Z turned on his subordinates and attempted to drain their Jinchōkon in order to transform himself into the ultimate lifeform. Saved by the Autobot <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Pretender" title="Pretender">Pretenders</a>, the Decepticons joined with Ginrai, Godbomber and the other Autobots in combining their energy into the “Perfect Transform Attack”, which destroyed Devil Z for good. With the alien being's death, the Transformers' Transtectors came to life as true super-robot lifeforms, including (somehow) Godbomber. Bidding farewell to the Headmaster Juniors, Godbomber joined with the other Transformers in departing Earth to rejoin their respective factions in space. <span style="border-style: solid; border-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-width: 0pt 1px; padding: 0pt 5px; font-size: 10px; background-color: rgb(236, 236, 236);" class="tt1_nowrap"><a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/The_Birth_of_the_Super_Lifeforms" title="The Birth of the Super Lifeforms">The Birth of the Super Lifeforms</a></span>

  • Godbomber (1988)
  • Japanese ID number: C-309
  • Accessories: "God Cannon", 2 "Tachyon Missiles"


Godbomber transforms into an armored trailer, comprised of a

collection of modular pieces. He does not so much transform as he does break apart—into two arms, two legs, two wings, a chest and a back—and recombine in a different configuration, with the only elements of transformation being his flip-out feet and head. He is armed in both modes with the God Cannon, which can either mount on his shoulder or be held in his fist in robot mode. Godbomber combines with the separately-sold Ginrai to form God Ginrai.

He's the sort of toy that makes you wonder how the heck they got away with selling him separately.
This set of molds was used —almost entirely without changes— to make <a href="http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Apex_Bomber" title="Apex Bomber">Apex Bomber</a>.

  • God Ginrai (1988)[[Image:|right|240px|thumb| Tech specs 10 10 9 10 10 10 10 10 STRINTSPDENDRNKCRGFPWSKL ]]
  • Japanese ID number: C-310
  • Accessories: Godmaster Transtector, 2 "Superconductor

Rifles", 2 "Particle Beam Cannons", Super Ginrai head, "God Cannon", 2 "Tachyon Missiles"


Godbomber was also available in a giftset with Ginrai, and is

able to interact with the Autobot commander in several ways. In trailer mode, Godbomber can hook up either directly to Ginrai's cab or to the back of Ginrai's own trailer and be towed along behind him, while any of Ginrai's weapons can plug into the holes in Godbomber's wings and chassis. Most prominently, of course, Godbomber disassembles into his various component parts, which combine with Super Ginrai to form God Ginrai. The God Legs become boots to which Ginrai's Particle Beam Cannons attach; the God Wing attaches to Ginrai's back, the two God Punch arms clip over Ginrai's own; and the God Breast clips over Ginrai's chest, into the top of which the God Cannon plugs. The toy also features a secondary, lesser combination referred to as the "God Breaster," which involves attaching the God Breast to Super Ginrai, and plugging Godbomber's wings into his arms.

The God Ginrai gift set was reissued in Japan in 2002, though

it was notoriously over-produced, and online retailers were still selling it even years later, at greatly reduced prices.
